european debt deal. after weeks of haggling and head-butting european leads finally showed a unified front and announced a plan to tackle their debt crisis and shore up their banks. this time, it wasn't all europe. a government report yesterday showed the economy grew at a faster clip than expected last quarter at an annual rate of 2.5%, because consumers and businesses spent more. while that may have eased fears of a double dip recession, it's way too early to pop the champagne. we still have a number of things holding this economy back, namely high unemployment and a struggling housing market. >> let's call it cautious optimism. we had headed to record months for the dow and s&p. in indication on the street this trend could continue? >> reporter: we had a nice rally in asian and european stocks overnight. stock future down and dow futures off 61 points. yesterday, the dow closed above 12 thousand for the first time

in three months and october shaping up to be the best month for the blue chip index in 24 years. the s&p 500 is up more than 13% this month on pace for its biggest monthly game in 37 years. but don't be surprised if the rally fades. with just two days left in october, a lot of money managers may cash in their profits to show off some big stock gains to their clients. chris? >> three words. feel good friday. let's see if it happens. alexis christoforous on wall street for us, thank you. we have more this morning from that explosive "60 minutes" interview with bernie madoff's wife. yesterday, we heard ruth madoff say she and her husband tried to kill themselves after his multibillion dollar fraud was revealed and in the interview with morley safer she also talks about the day mad jaw confessed to her. >> i was kind of paralyzed. bernie got up and said, "i'm going back to the office." >> reporter: was he emotional in any way? >> i don't remember that. he must have been. >> reporter: apologetic in any way? >> probably, yes.

i -- it's sort of a blank now. i'm not hedging here. i just simply don't remember every detail. i was in such a state. >> reporter: later that day, that evening, you both turned up at the office christmas party. >> i know. he phoned me from the office and he said we have to go to the office christmas party, so i got myself together and went over there. we stayed a half an hour and we just went home. the next morning, the fbi was there to arrest him at about 7:00 a.m. >> joining us now is bernie madoff's former attorney, ira lee sorkin. thank you for joining us. were you at all surprised with anything you have heard or have you been privy to all of this information? >> i was aware of all the information that she disclosed. >> as far as the arrest and how it went down, your recollections of how it it all -- >> it's very clear to me.

i was out of town watching my two and a half year granddaughter in a nursing school class in washington, d.c. and when my cell phone rang and he was on the line and he essentially said i've been arrested and handcuffed to a chair at the fbi headquarters, i need your help. and he had spoken to me about a week and a half earlier to come up and talk to me about what i didn't know and then he called me the day i was headed to washington and then wednesday, the 10th, when all of this went down for the family, and said he needed to adjourn it until monday the 15th. i said fine, come up and see me the 15th and then i was down in d.c. on the morning of the 11th, i got the call around 9:30 in the morning. >> bernie takes a plea deal a couple of months later after the arrest. what motivated him to do that so quickly? >> his wife and his family. there's a good possibility that

he could of stayed out for a much longer period of time under bail conditions and then pleaded, because i think at the time that he confessed to his sons, he knew that he was going to die in prison. so there's a possibility that he could have stayed out. however, the pressure on his wife, the pressure on his family was so intense, the anti-semitic threats that were vicious, the death threats that to relieve the pressure on his family and particularly his wife, he chose to plead. and the moment he pleaded and was remanded to prison, the satellite dishes disappeared, the helicopters disappeared, the reporters disappeared. >> did they encourage him to do that or was that his decision? >> that was his decision. >> as far as the suicide that we heard from ruth, i know there was some people that think there may be some truth to it, maybe it's not 100% true. did you know that bernie or think that bernie was suicidal at the time? >> i was aware that he was in a

pretty bad state. i'm not qualified to say when one is suicidal or not. but i knew he was in terrible, terrible shape. >> so it did not surprise you when these revelations came out? >> well, i knew about the attempt before. >> we talk about bernie being concerned for his family and taking the plea like rebecca mentioned. concern for ruth and the kids. was there ever -- did he ever demonstrate or display any sympathy for the thousands of people whose lives he ruined? >> oh, yes. not that he would ever be believed, but he certainly did. he certainly did in conversations with me, which i'm not going to go into. he had enormous remorse. he felt that he could get out of it. he never could get out of it. but continued to spiral and you know the rest. >> ira lee sorkin, thank you for joining us >> you can see morley safer's interview with madoff's wife and son that is coming up on "60

minutes" on sunday on cbs. in last night's game is any indication, get ready for a wild world series game seven tonight. only the third time in series history, a team that was one out from elimination came back to win the game and the cards did it twice. in the ninth inning and 10 inning david freese led the charge. two-run single for the second time and then in the bottom of the 11th smashed off a walkoff homer to center for the win. >> we will see you tomorrow night! >> tonight will be the first game seven in a world series since 2002. texas governor rick perry may be a no-show at some upcoming republican presidential debates. more than a half dozen debates planned between now and january 3rd iowa caucuses. perry has committed to one of those. his opponents were quick to criticize. >> i would never skip the opportunity to let the american

the powerful sedative propofol. dr. jackson admits giving jackson the drug in his bedroom to help him sleep but says that jackson administered the final dose to himself. >> if jackson administered the doses that he described, i would not have expected michael jackson to have died. >> reporter: on cross-examination, the prosecutor reminded the jury no matter the amount, propofol is a drug dr. murray should have never given michael jackson. ben tracy, cbs news, los angeles. >> murray's lawyers said this week they will not call him to testify on his own behalf. eastern turkey now this morning. another miracle rescue. a 13-year-old boy was pulled alive from a collapsed building five days after sunday's powerful earthquake. the death toll from that quake now at 570. early this morning, nasa launched the first in a just nwn

known to increase potassium levels and may be the cause of these increased risk of blood clots. >> for women on birth control pills what are the symptoms of a blood clot? >> the blood clot starts below the knee in the calf. it is calf tenderness and swelling. the clots are life-threatening when they move up to the lungs and those symptoms you can't miss. shortness of breath and palpitations. getting into the emergency room there could make the difference between life and denial. >> the first thing you should take of is going to the emergency room if you're on these pills. should women think of not taking these pills given the side effects? >> i would advise most of my patients not to make any rash decisions now. we will know much more in december. the fda is compared this new study with some of the older studies out there, and come up with more definitive recommendations. but if you are on any birth

control pill, whether it's the old form or the new form, don't smoke. that increases your risk of getting a blood clot far more than what form of birth control you're choosing. also try and maintain a healthy weight. that can cut down on your risk of clots. if you're going to take a long trip on a plane or on a bus or on a train, get up and walk around. that helps to prevent the blood from pooling in your lower leg and cuts down on your risk of suffering from a serious blood clot. >> makes you wonder. given these serious side effects people are taking these pills. >> advantages with the newer pills. they tend to cause less weight gain and less nauseous and can battle acne. makes sense women want to try the newer formulations but we have to make sure they are not more dangerous than what we had before. >> you need to get together with your doctor and tailor make the pill that is right for you. >> exactly. particularly if you have a high risk of blood clot, if you had

one before or you have that in your family, maybe any birth control pill is not the right choice for you so you have to tailor make it and sit down with your doctor and think about it. >> great information. >> dr. holly phillips, thank you. still ahead on "the early show," more americans own a gun more so than ever before. we will take you inside the change face of gun control. we are going back to china this morning. why is their economy booming? one reason is the entrepreneurs there. we will show you how a new generation of business owners is changing china and also the world right here on "the early show" on cbs. keurig has a wide variety of gourmet coffee and tea to choose from. keurig is the way to brew fresh, delicious coffee in under a minute. way to brew. so with keurig, every cup tastes like it's brewed just for you. because it is.

try not to gain too much weight. even five pounds can put stress on your low back. finally, for robert, in particular, if he smokes, he should quit. smoking causes degenerative changes in the spinal cord and that causes back pain as well. >> people need to put their arms around the fact it's not if you kind of pull your back out, it's when. everybody is going to have a back issue at some point for the most part. >> almost all of us. the next question is coming from wendy on facebook. what foods help reduce your triglycerides number. >> triglycerides are a type the fat and part of our overall cholesterol. normal is below 150. there are things we can do to lower our risk. number one, choose fish as opposed to red meat. fish is high in healthy omega 3 fatty acids as opposed to red meat which is high in saturated

fats. avoid transfats. fried foods and transfat foods are the fats. use canola or olive oil. and limit your alcohol. alcohol drives the triglyceride number through the roof. >> a lot of dieters can relate to this next question from stewart. >> once a person loses weight, how do you keep it off? >> that's the trick, right? >> no magical answer there. >> absolutely. stewart is in great company. it turns out 4 in 5 dieters who successful lose a large amount of weight actually put it back on within two years. my advice, whatever you did to lose the weight, keep doing what you're doing. you want to keep your diet and exercise consistent. whatever you were doing to lose the weight, pretty much keep it right there. other tips. you should eat breakfast in the morning so you don't get over hungry later in the day and reach for poor food choices.

you know, reach for a burger as opposed to a salad or something healthier. finally, you should check your weight every other day at the same time of the day. if you switch the time of day, your weight can fluctuate by a couple of pounds so you want to stay on top of what your number is on the scale but you want to do it every other day. >> got it. to clarify for the folks at home, burgers are not that bad of an option, right? >> everything now and then. everything in moderation. >> weekend menu right there. dr. holly phillips, thanks. all of those ghosts and goblins are gold for retailers and how it is a multibillion dollar business when we come back on "the early show." announcer: this portion of "the early show" sponsored by breathe right. don't let a stuffy nose get between you and your sleep. it's your right to breathe right! i couldn't breathe... i couldn't sleep and mornings? rough. i tried tissues and neti pot thingy and even more tissues then i said enough! and i found the solution.

and really the beacon and founding place of liberty around the world. i think when people go through the ceremony here, it's a very special significance for them and so we will be celebrating with over a hundred new citizens of the united states here earlier -- later this morning. >> it's going to be a wonderful day for those folks. i know a lot of work has been done on the statue of liberty the last couple of years. now the statue will be closed the next 365 days, what exactly is going to be done? >> you know, the statue was closed after 9/11. i reopened it in july of 2009 on the fourth of july because we felt that it was time for us to make sure that we had opportunity in america. we have great security here on the island but the kinds of modifications we will be making on related to health and safety inside the statue, staircases and railings and fire safety issues and an elevator will go inside the statue. these investments we are making will make sure the statue

remains here for a long time to come. we get over 3.4 million visitors here every year and they come from around the world. throughout our national parks all over the country including here at liberty island, we understand that we are part of the economic central of american. 8.5 billion jobs created tlur our national parks and outdoor recreation so this will help our country. >> going high tech with the panoramic camera at the top of the statue. have a wonderful day and we appreciate you spending time with us this morning, secretary ken salazar. >> thank you very much, chris. appreciate it. viral videos have become one of our favorite guilty pleasures but recently the makers of youtube most popular videos are little to show for it other than bragging rights about the number of hits but that is now changing.
